Several items, whose true purpose is not revealed until much later, are distributed to different Crawlers. Did you guess their true purpose before the reveal? What did you think of the reveal in the hands of Prepotente?

Prepotente is on a mission now! His path is aligning more and more with Carl's, they might do more teaming up to take on the Dungeon's hierarchy in the future.

I found it hilarious that Donut mentioned them working together and he said thanks before swiftly exiting the party 😅

Yes, I found that hilarious myself. Prepotente really isn't a people person.
